of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated machine,
nor should a means for grounding be added to the machine. Servicing a double-
insulated machine requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a
double-insulated machine must be identical to the parts they replace.
Please read and comply with these original instructions prior to the initial
operation of your appliance and store them for later use or subsequent owners.
– The non-compliance of the operating and safety instructions may lead to
damages of the appliance and to dangers for the operator and other persons.
– In case of transport damage inform vendor immediately
Environmental protection
